How our Knutsford Cat Sitting works
Contact Sophy using our online contact form at the bottom of this page, or use the WhatsApp chat button at the bottom of the website to start a chat.
We’ll then respond with our availability, more information on our service and provide a price for your requested visits.
If you’re happy to go ahead with us, we’ll onboard you to our Time to Pet app, and secure your booking in our diary.
We’ll visit your home to meet you and your cat, learn about their routine, personality, likes and dislikes. We’ll go through where everything is kept, discuss any special requirements and answer any questions you may have. This is typically done close to your time away, and is when we’d collect the keys from you.
This pre-visit is free and arranged at a time to suit you. We’re happy to meet you before, or after you’ve decided to use us as your cat sitter.
While you’re away, we’ll care for your cat following the routine we discussed. We can send you photos and updates after every single visit, so you can see how happy and content your cat is.
At any time during our booking, you can get in touch with your sitter if you have any questions or any requests.
When you return, you’ll find a happy, well-cared-for cat and a tidy home.
More reviews from happy Knutsford cat owners
Sophy is very much a ‘cat lady’ and understood all our cat needed. We had not been away for a long time due to various reasons so have been quite apprehensive to leave our cat alone as this was his first time without his cat companion too so had taken the time to research to make sure we chose the right sitter, I knew straight away after meeting Sophy for an introduction visit that we would be in safe hands.
An extremely professional service and wish you success with cat sitters of knutsford. Will book in again without hesitation next time, Sophy has taken our fear of leaving our beloved pet alone, away.
We will definitely book her again - thank you Sophy!
